Argent, then Petra, then Kiss. I may be a bit bias but I like the Petra version better. The only thing Petra asked Argent or the powers that be behind their music if they could change the lyrics some to say what they wanted to say whereas Kiss did the orginal Argent version. People thought Kiss stole the song from Petra but as I said they recorded it the way Argent orginally did.

I was going through my cd collection and throwing away broken cds and unmatched cases and so on. I came across this album, and sadly it was broken. I didn't throw it away for the simple fact the artwork is amazing. Wish they had kept that epic logo. Furthermore, they did another version of this with Schlitt (spelling?) on vocals. It is easier to come across, but I love this one. The intro is awesome.

@drockkclapton Greg X Volz sang both of Petra's studio versions of the song (with the second appearing on Beat the System). That version was TERRIBLE compared to this one. John Schlitt did sing it live, but not on an album (the live version on Captured in Time and Space was also Volz).

@owatinay Thanks man. I actually questioned myself about who was doing vox on the other version within seconds of making that post. And I totally agree. This one blows the other one out of the water! This is actually the most tasteful treatment I have heard applied to this oft covered song.

Who did this song first, Petra or Kiss?

@ral1334 Good question! The song was actually released by the British band, Argent. Petra covered it in 77. Kiss later covered it 91. It was dedicated to Eric Carr (Drummer for Kiss in the 80's) who died that same year.
